CIGARETTE-CASE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Nov. 26,1918.

Application filed March 28, 1918. Serial No. 225,205.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CASPER BLOOMBERG, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cigarette- Cases, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in cigarette cases and my object is the production of a moisture proof case which will keep the cigarettes in proper condition, hold a large number in small bulk, protect them against breakage and'provide a pocket for cut and folded to form a pocket having the front 1, back 2 and flap 3 with the edges 5, 6 and 7 sewed together and preferably bound as is also the top edge 4 and the flap edge 8.

Another piece of rubberized material is folded to form a second pocket having the front 9 and back 10 with the edges 11, 12

and 13 sewed together and preferably bound as are the top edges 14 and 15.

The two pockets are made the same size and the front 1 of the first pocketand theback 10 of the second pocket are sewed together at 15', at a distance from the edges, but are left unsewed at the top to form a match pocket.

The case therefore has a front and rear cigarette holding pocket with a smaller match pocket between them and, by reason of the smaller match holding pocket, a bellows like case is produced as shown.

To stiffen the case and protect the cigarettes against breakage U-shaped metal frames 16 and 17 are placed one in each cigarette pocket.

A fastener 18, 18 on the flap 3 and front 9 serves to hold the flap in closed position.

I claim A cigarette case comprising a pocket with an open top, a flap extending from the top, a second pocket with an open top, the two being secured together at a distance from the sides and bottom whereby a third and smaller pocket is formed between the two, U-shaped metal frames in each of the two larger pockets and means for holding the flap in closed position. o

In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature.

CASPER BLOOMBERG.
